After Dongfang Yu and the others returned to the Waihuang Sea, Gu Xiaoxing quickly took them back to the Jiumu Pirate Group and back to the Fancong World.
Hao Wuxian and the others who originally followed Gu Xiaoxing and chose to stay in the outer wilderness were filled with emotion when they saw them return.
It was more than five hundred years since we said goodbye and we met again.
But compared to the entire vast ancient world, it is a great blessing to be reunited in more than five hundred years!
Then, Qiao Yanran took Mo Lin and Doujiu back to Youtian Territory first.
Dongfang Yu also returned to Xuantian Territory.
The two brothers, Hao Youde and Hao Youcai, hugged their father, squeezed into three balls of flesh, and returned to the Haotian Territory.
Everyone has a destination!
Gu Xiaoxing stood at Fanlongkou, watching this scene from a distance.
"My lord!"
Behind him, Yan Shan's somewhat worried voice sounded.
Gu Xiaoxing turned to look at her, squeezed out a smile and said, "Don't worry, it's okay."
Good word!
Then, the voice of the Lord continued to be heard.
"It's just a beating, it's not a big deal, just bear with it, let's go!"
Gu Xiaoxing said, already taking the lead and marching forward bravely, straight into the cage.
Yan Shan blinked, then resolutely followed!
Not long after, Gu Xiaoxing flew out of the cage with a bruised nose and face, but Yan Shan did not follow him out and stayed in the cage.
Later, Gu Xiaoxing took advantage of the return of his original body, and his whole body was completely complete, and he had a short period of enlightenment.
Finally, half a month later, he summarized some of his experience in using himself this time, and then divided it again!
Although the cultivation level of this re-differentiated original body has also reached the Dzogchen Realm, it is actually stronger than before in terms of strength!
After another half-month flight, Gu Xiaoxing returned to the ancient source sea.
But when he saw the ancient path source sea from a distance, he was stunned!
At this moment, the ancient path source sea was in chaos, the starry sky was shattered, and the stars were shattered!
Especially Nanyuanhai, it was almost completely destroyed and in ruins!
There was even a huge noise coming from it!
Who is it?
Dare you be so bold and go straight to the old nest of the ancient path?
After possessing the memory of Dao Cangfang, Gu Xiaoxing has deduced from many details that this ancient Dao Yuanhai may not be as simple as it seems, and the trump card it controls may be even more terrifying than what the outside world has rumored!
Even Gu Xiaoxing, with his current strength that can kill Daoyin, can't say that he can escape unscathed after forcing his way into the ancient Daoyuan Sea!
But someone did it!
And, upon closer inspection, he is still an acquaintance!
In the Nanyuan Sea, headed by the Third Desolate God, Dao Sanliu, led the Fifth Desolate God, the Seventh Desolate God, the Ninth Desolate God, and the elders of the major source seas, controlling thirty-six golden sacred bamboos to form a large formation!
Although there are seven desolate gods in the ancient source sea, in many cases, these desolate gods are not in the ancient source sea, but will sit in the desolate star field.
At this moment, there are only four of them here!
They led many elders to form a large formation with thirty-six golden sacred bamboos, and trapped one person in it.
This man had purple hair and looked like an uncle. Gu Xiaoxing recognized him almost at a glance.
Isn't it the leader of the ancient pirate group, Zi Kui?
Why is he here?
Gu Xiaoxing was very puzzled. He still vaguely remembered that Zi Kui got into the cocoon and was taken away by the real king. After that, he disappeared without any news.
For this reason, Gu Xiaoxing once lamented, but there was nothing he could do.
That big cocoon was taken into the Inner Wild Sea by the True King, and there was a high probability that it would eventually fall into the hands of the ancestor of the True True One.
It was impossible for Gu Xiaoxing to run into the Inner Wild Sea and go directly to the Xiantian Ancestor to confront him for Zi Kui.
But I didn’t expect that Zi Kui would appear inexplicably in the ancient path source sea!
But soon, Gu Xiaoxing discovered something strange. This Zi Kui seemed to be a little different, as if he had suddenly changed into a different person.
At this moment, Zi Kui was seen looking at Dao Sanliu and others very angrily.
That kind of anger is not like the heavy anger of an adult, but more like the feeling of a child being pissed off.
Gu Xiaoxing knew something about Zi Kui, and it was unlikely that he would behave like this.
Moreover, looking at Zi Kui's counterattack method when he was besieged, it was obviously too immature and not at all like the strength that a third ancient realm monk should have. He was too weak!
Otherwise, even if the four half-step true spirit levels, together with many Dzogchen realms, or even form a large formation, would not be able to really trap Zi Kui.
The gap between the third ancient realm and the second ancient realm is too big!
Even those extremely close half-step true spirit monks, thousands of them, can't compare to a true true spirit!
Gu Xiaoxing didn't know what Zi Kui's condition was now. He just looked at the delicate butterfly wings behind him, thoughtfully.
Suddenly, Zi Kui seemed to be driven into panic, and suddenly let out a roar, and then with his hair flying, a purple rhyme burst out, and he crashed towards the formation!
The golden sacred bamboo forming a large formation is none other than the Climbing Bamboo!
And every one of them is a climbing bamboo with a million knots!
Even the nine Heavenly Climbing Bamboos controlled by the third-raters have exceeded one million knots!
It is precisely because of the existence of these nine bamboos with over a million knots that the power of the entire formation has been upgraded to a higher level. With the combined efforts of everyone, the weakened version of Zi Kui can be trapped!
But with Zi Kui's explosion at this moment, the formation immediately became overwhelmed, and cracks soon appeared, as if they would be forcibly broken open at any time! !
Tao Sanliu made a quick decision and shouted loudly. The seals in everyone's hands changed at the same time. Thirty-six ascending bamboos spun up and blasted towards Zi Kui in the formation, switching from defense to offense!
Today's Zi Kui seems to have no combat experience at all. He was hit hard and his head was bleeding.
This time it seemed that Zi Kui was really hurt, and his whole body burst into fear again.
When the trapped formation was transformed into an attacking formation, its ability to restrict people was greatly reduced. Zi Kui rushed out of the encirclement in an instant, covered his still broken head, and flew directly into the central source sea!
The third-rate Taoist's expression changed, and he wanted to stop him, but Zi Kui was a third-level ancient monk after all, and his speed was too fast, and it was too late!
In the blink of an eye, Zi Kui's whole person had submerged into the ancient source sea and disappeared!
Dao Sanliu looked at this scene with uncertainty, but he did not choose to pursue him immediately.
Then he looked around again, and his face turned livid!
This time, the Ancient Daoyuan Sea suffered huge losses. The entire Nan Yuan Sea was almost destroyed. The adjacent Dong Yuan Sea and Xi Yuan Sea were also greatly affected, with heavy casualties!
Since the establishment of Gudaoyuanhai, we have never suffered such a big loss!
Even if it was the war between the old and new forces, or even the war between the four true ancestors, and now the battle between the inner and outer wilderness, he, the ancient path source sea, could survive alone!
But at this critical moment, he stumbled into a big fight!
Of course the third-rate Taoist would recognize Captain Zi Kui from Waihuanghai!
He also saw with his own eyes that Zi Kui finally got into the cocoon after being pursued by the True King.
Tao Sanliu also doesn't know why Zi Kui appears in their ancient Tao Yuanhai!
Could it be related to the true king?
Did the True King know about the ambitions of Gudao Yuanhai, so he used Zi Kui's hand to warn them?
Dao Sanliu thinks this is unlikely, because it shouldn't be that simple to control a fate-knowing realm!
And looking at Zi Kui's appearance, it was obvious that he was not being controlled, but more like he had been brainwashed and turned into an idiot!
It's very likely that it has something to do with that big cocoon!
However, that big cocoon is either in the hands of the True King now, or it must be in the hands of the Xian Tian Ancestor in the Red Desolate Sea.
So the third rate doesn’t know what the specific situation is!
But now that Zi Kui has entered the inner bamboo forest of the Central Source Sea, he can't ignore it!
Maybe, this is also an opportunity for him!
An opportunity to capture or even kill the third ancient realm monk alive!
"Pass my order to quickly recruit the other three desolate gods to return and enter the inner bamboo forest soon!"
In the Dongyuan Sea, there is a petite woman who is sobbing constantly and looking everywhere.
"Thirteenth baby, where have you been!?"
The scene at this moment was already chaotic, but this woman ignored it and searched randomly in the Eastern Wilderness Sea.
But in the end, she found nothing and squatted down and couldn't help crying.
"Where are you...!"
This petite woman is none other than Dao Liuli.
Not long after Gu Xiaoxing left with everyone, she began to search, but found nothing, not even the elder Dao Cangfang.
Nowadays, the more chaotic and dangerous the situation becomes, the more anxious Dao Liuli becomes, but after all, there is no trace!
Even those who came with Hao Youcai have all disappeared!
Faintly, Dao Liuli had already guessed something.
Maybe her thirteenth baby will never come back!
When she thought of this, she cried more and more sadly, and the more she cried, the sadder she became.
"Xiao Liuli, which bastard bullied you?"
Suddenly, a simple and familiar voice sounded in Dao Liuli's ears, making her whole body tremble. Then she suddenly looked up and saw a tall figure standing in front of her.
The next moment, Dao Liuli rushed over and cried loudly.
Above them, Gu Xiaoxing, who had become "Daocang Fang", watched this scene silently, and Hao Youcai finally chose to follow him.
Shaking his head slightly, Gu Xiaoxing did not look any further, but rushed towards Nanyuan Sea to join many elders.
Soon, a month passed, and all the seven desolate gods of the ancient path, Yuanhai, had returned!
They led the four source seas, a total of sixteen elders, to the outer bamboo forest of the central source sea.
The seven great desolate gods are all half-step true spirit level!
The sixteen elders are all in the Dzogchen realm!
This is the true strength of Gudao Yuanhai!
If you include the people in the Seven Wild Star Regions, this kind of strength is enough to sweep through any force in the Inner Wild Sea except the Fengshen Mountain!
And the reason why Fengshen Mountain cannot be swept is simply because there is a true king sitting in Fengshen Mountain!
If the true king is not around, his ancient path, Origin Sea, can still be swept across!
The difference between the ancient path and the sea is only a true spirit level of the third ancient realm!
Dao Sanliu stood at the front of the crowd, staring into the depths of the bamboo forest, his eyes filled with ambition. An opportunity was right in front of him and he couldn't miss it!
If he could successfully capture or kill a third ancient realm monk alive, he would have great confidence and use it to allow himself to take that step and step into the fate-knowing realm!
The cultivation of a third-rate Taoist has been stagnant in the half-step true spirit for too long. He is extremely talented. He once calculated the impermanence of the Tao and obtained the Tao of Life and Death.
But because the path of life and death he obtained was incomplete, he only practiced the path of death!
Under such circumstances, it would be difficult for him to enter the third ancient realm with an incomplete path of life and death!
But if there is a monk who is in the third ancient realm, let him kill him and let him feel the death of the other person, then he will be very likely to take that step!
To die...to know fate!
But it is not easy for a half-step true spirit to kill the true spirit. It can be said to be a wishful thinking!
If it were in other places, it would be true, but if it was deep in this bamboo forest, it would be different!
It is possible!
Originally, Dao Sanliu planned to wait for a year before entering the depths of the inner bamboo forest to find fortune.
If he can find that bamboo shoot with over five million knots, there is a high probability that it will help him realize his destiny!
Probably tens of thousands of years ago, when Dao Sanliu entered the deepest part of the inner bamboo forest, he saw a climbing bamboo with more than five million knots. The golden bamboo shoot next to it made him salivate!
But it's a pity that he failed to seize the opportunity at that time and watched the climbing bamboo run away before his eyes!
In the inner bamboo forest, it is not peaceful. Not only is it filled with a mysterious pressure, but the special spiritual soil here even flows!
Especially deep in the bamboo forest, this situation is even more serious!
Even if you are a third-rate and half-step True Spirit level cultivation, if you go too deep, it will be a bit difficult to move forward.
But he didn't want to miss this great opportunity. For this reason, he had entered the deepest part of the inner bamboo forest countless times, but he had never encountered the Climbing Bamboo with over 5 million knots.
No other climbing bamboos were even found there!
Over time, the number of times Tao Sanliu entered became less and less, but he did not give up completely. Every once in a while, he would still go in to try his luck.
What if?
But at this moment, Tao Sanliu no longer wants to wait any longer!
With the help of the secret treasure, he was unable to move even an inch deep in the inner bamboo forest.
Zi Kui doesn't have the help of secret treasures. Even if he is in the fate-knowing realm, as long as he enters the depths of the inner bamboo forest, he will not be much better, and the situation may even be worse!
And since the other party hasn't come out for so long, it's very possible that he's trapped in the inner bamboo forest!
Therefore, for Tao Sanliu, this is a great opportunity!
He turned around and looked at everyone, waved his hand and took out some crowns woven from Ascension bamboo leaves!
Gu Xiaoxing was also among the many elders, and like them, took over the crown.
Apart from its golden color, this crown seems to have nothing special about it.
But Gu Xiaoxing knew that this was actually handed down from the original ancestors of the ancient Dao Yuanhai, and was woven with a secret method using over a million knots of ascending bamboo leaves!
As long as you wear this crown, you can greatly reduce the wearer's pressure in the inner bamboo forest, which is very convenient!
Gu Xiaoxing has been to the outer bamboo forest, but he has never been to the inner bamboo forest.
Although Dao Cangfang had gone in more than once, he also had feelings about this part in his memory.
But this is not Gu Xiaoxing's personal experience after all, it is still different after all.
He was also curious about what kind of secrets there would be inside!
After a while, under the leadership of Tao Sanliu, everyone entered the inner bamboo forest together.
After entering the inner bamboo forest, Gu Xiaoxing immediately felt a great pressure. If it were not affected by the crown on his head, this pressure would probably be several times stronger!
In the end, after reaching a certain level, Gu Xiaoxing and other elders chose to stop and did not move forward.
It's really because the pressure in this nebula is too great.
Even if you have the Dzogchen Realm cultivation level, even if you have a crown to supplement it, it will not be easy to use.
Only the seven desolate gods did not stop and moved directly towards the deepest central area of the inner bamboo forest!
In fact, Gu Xiaoxing could still go in, but there was no need to worry. Instead, he suddenly took out a transparent vial.
In this small bottle, there is also a golden worm!
It is the bamboo shoot-eating insect that Dao Jia Qiu gave him before, which can help him find the bamboo shoots bred by over a million knots of Ascendant Bamboo!
Three other elders also took out the same bamboo shoot insects.
When the other elders saw the worm in the bottle in their hands, they couldn't help but look envious! !
These are given by the Lords of the Four Sources and Seas, just four of them, no more!
This also gives these four people a better chance of meeting Bamboo Shoots and a better chance of being promoted to the Half-Step True Spirit Realm so that they can participate in the next battle against the Aragami.
Gu Xiaoxing glanced at the worm in the bottle first, and after seeing that it had no reaction or direction, he immediately left the crowd and started acting alone!
The entire Central Source Sea has a diameter of three million light years. Compared with the outer bamboo forest, the inner bamboo forest is much larger. Its diameter must be more than two million light years.
This is already larger than 99% of the star fields in the ancient world.
If there is no nebula to obscure it, and there is no pressure close to it, then this range is not very wide, and Gu Xiaoxing can see through it at a glance.
But in this nebula, Gu Xiaoxing can't see through it at all. Coupled with the pressure checks and balances, such a large area is enough for people to find!
Speeding through the nebula in the inner bamboo forest is like being in a sea of clouds, but this sea of clouds seems to have infinite "stickiness", making every step forward extremely difficult!
And the closer you get to the depths of the inner bamboo forest, the stronger the stickiness in the nebula becomes!
Gu Xiaoxing even doubted that if he went to the deepest place, he would be completely bound by the nebula and would never be able to escape!
At the same time, through personal experience, Gu Xiaoxing seemed to vaguely feel a Taoist charm.
After repeated confirmations, and the fact that Gu Xiaoxing had condensed the source of Chen Star Dao and controlled the Dao Yun of Chen Star, he was convinced that his feeling was not wrong!
There is indeed some Taoist charm mixed in this infinitely sticky nebula.
It's just that compared to Gu Xiaoxing's Daoyun of the Dust Star, the Daoyun in this nebula is much weaker!
In other words, this is a very strong Taoist meaning, which is transforming towards Taoist rhyme, but it is almost meaningless and cannot completely complete the transformation!
Fortunately, Gu Xiaoxing's senses are unusually sharp, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to feel it!
Finally, he looked deep into the inner bamboo forest and couldn't help but murmur.
"Could it be that someone is here... condensing the source of truth?"
"Who could it be?"
A burst of curiosity arose in Gu Xiaoxing's heart. A large part of the reason why he separated his original body and returned here was to explore the secrets of the ancient path, Yuanhai.
He was about to head directly towards the depths of the inner bamboo forest, but at this moment, the bamboo shoot-eating insect, which had been motionless along the way, suddenly began to poke its head in one direction.
Only then did Gu Xiaoxing pause. After a slight hesitation, he still did not go directly to the depths of the inner bamboo forest. He planned to get the over a million bamboo shoots that reached the sky first.
After all, this can be regarded as a treasure. Since it was discovered at this time, it is considered destined and there is no reason to give up.
Just as Gu Xiaoxing followed the guidance of the Bamboo Shoot Insect to search for over a million bamboo shoots, the seven desolate gods were also approaching the depths of the inner bamboo forest.
Zi Kui has reached the deepest part of the inner bamboo forest!
"Yes, come here quickly, I'll be waiting for you in front...!"
A voice appeared in Zi Kui's mind, constantly tempting him.
With Zi Kui's young mind now without scheming, he couldn't resist the temptation, and he was led by the nose in just a few words.
There was no pressure or viscosity in the nebula around him. It was as if someone was deliberately opening a path for him, and he quickly entered the central area of the inner bamboo forest without any obstruction!
There, there is a lonely grave!
On top of the solitary grave, a golden sacred bamboo grows!
This sacred bamboo shoots straight into the sky, with no end in sight, far exceeding a million knots.
In fact, it has exceeded ten million knots!
In front of the solitary grave, there was still a person sitting cross-legged. The person looked at Zi Kui who was approaching, and a smile gradually appeared on Gu Jing Wubo's old face!
Returning to Gu Xiaoxing, he followed the guidance of the Bamboo Shoot Insect and moved forward. He also saw many Climbing Bamboos on the way.
But most of these climbing bamboos were between 10,000 and 100,000 knots, which meant nothing to him, and there were no bamboo shoots.
Compared to the nebula in the outer bamboo forest, the spiritual soil where the Ascension Bamboo grows is concentrated in some places.
It's completely different in the inner bamboo forest. The lonely star traveling through the nebula is like traveling through the flowing spiritual soil!
Here, the Ascendant Bamboo can grow anywhere, and it moves slowly with the flow of the spiritual soil. It has no fixed position, which is very strange.
But even Gu Xiaoxing couldn't move through the nebula very fast. It took about three days before he finally found the place guided by the Bamboo Shoot Insect!
What you see is a golden bamboo climbing to the sky. The diameter of the bamboo body is wider than the mountain. It rises into the sky and goes straight to the clouds, like a road to the sky!
No wonder it is called the Climbing Bamboo!
Beside it, there is a golden bamboo shoot, which is like a golden mountain emerging from the nebula, very dazzling.
This is the first time Gu Xiaoxing has seen the bamboo shoots with over a million sections. They look completely different from those with tens or hundreds of thousands of sections!
Not only the size and energy, but also seems to contain some kind of rules and principles.
Without hesitation, Gu Xiaoxing stepped forward and dug out the bamboo shoots, which were like golden mountains.
Then he dug out the entire Ascension Bamboo.
Since we are destined to meet each other, take them all with you!
From the digging of the bamboo, Gu Xiaoxing could tell that the Sky Bamboo had indeed undergone a transformation after growing for more than a million knots.
The Climbing Heaven Bamboo in front of me, if you count it carefully, is less than 1.1 million knots.
But its strength is several times greater than the Million-Joint Climbing Bamboo!
Putting away the Ascension Bamboo, Gu Xiaoxing directly took out the Ascension Bamboo Shoots.
This bamboo shoot was as huge as a mountain of gold, but Gu Xiaoxing easily swallowed it in one bite and started refining it directly!
----
Two in one!
Some people died, but not completely...
